Anna was very satisfied with what she saw. She was organising a big party for her son and two of his friends who shared the same birthday. She and the other mothers, Helen and Suki, had spent the morning decorating the rOom they had hired. It looked wonderful with all the streamers and balloons. Helen, who had been a wheelchair-user since an accident some years previously, had also been busy in the kitchen preparing a fabulous spread for the children. "All we need now is the entertainment group," said Suki. "They're meant to be really good and they'll hopefully keep the children amused for most of the time." "I certainly hope so," laughed Helen. "We all know how easily a large group of excited little boys can get out of control." It wasn't long before the room was filled with noisy and increasingly unruly children. Anna and her friends were getting worried. The entertainers should have arrived an hour ago. Anna's mother approached the group holding out a mobile phone. "Anna, your phone's been ringing. You didn't hear it because of all the noise." As Anna listened to the message, a look of horror spread across her face. "The entertainers have been involved in an accident. They're all OK, but there's no way they can get here for the party," she told the others. "What on earth are we going to do?" "Well, there's a piano over there. I can play some party music," said Anna's mother. "You can't play the piano, Mum," laughed Anna. "Oh, I've been having lessons for a while," replied her mother. "And I've been taking lessons in magic at night school," Helen joined in. "I think I can conjure up a show." "Well, thank goodness for all this hidden talent," exclaimed Anna with a great sigh of relief
